Genshin Event: Guide to Shuyu's Beetle Battle Bowl

by Isaac Feb 11,2025

Conquer Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl in Genshin Impact 5.3! This limited-time event challenges you to beetle battles. This guide provides a straightforward approach to victory in all five encounters.

Entry Requirements:

  • Adventure Rank 20 or higher.
  • Completion of the Mondstadt Archon Quest Prologue. While not mandatory, completing Xianyun's Story Quest "Grus Serena Chapter" enhances understanding of the event's narrative, as Shuyu features prominently.

Gameplay Mechanics:

The event unfolds within a Teapot simulation on Mt. Aocang. You control an Onikabuto beetle against various enemies. Controls are simple: Forward, Backward, and Jump. Mastering timing and stamina management is key, as movement and attacks consume stamina. Utilize Piercing Strikes (by holding the attack button) for enhanced damage.

Stage-Specific Strategies:

  • Stage 1 ("Staff Master Who Only Uses Basic Horizontal Sweeps"): A basic Hilichurl; focus attacks on its head, dodging ground markers indicating attacks.
  • Stage 2 ("Staff Master Who Waves a Torch About Non-Stop"): A Hilichurl Berserker with a Pyro Slime. Target its head and the Pyro Slime, especially when it's preparing to throw it.
  • Stage 3 ("Mumbly-Bumbly Red-Hot Mage"): A Pyro Abyss Mage. Interrupt its fire spell casting, then attack relentlessly.
  • Stage 4 ("Bouncy, Energetic Mage Who’s Actually Freezing Cold"): A Cryo Abyss Mage. Employ the same strategy as the Pyro Abyss Mage.
  • Stage 5 ("Big Guy Said to be Solid as a Mini Mountain"): A Stonehide Lawachurl. Prioritize speed and dodge its attacks. A Geo Slime will appear; use a Piercing Strike for maximum damage.
